Kerrville Tri has been welcoming athletes to the Texas Hill Country since 2011. Known for its scenic 70.3 distance race on Sunday, the weekend also features 7 other events—including Rookie, Sprint (Saturday), Quarter and Half distances (Sunday).
With beautiful race views, awesome swag, and a legendary after-party featuring floating in the Guadalupe River, free food, and beer, it's more than just a race—it’s a weekend getaway. Bring the whole family for the free kids run on Saturday and enjoy all that Kerrville has to offer.
